Welcome to "Engaging and Empowering School Libraries," where we elevate the role of school libraries by addressing pressing educational topics. In this episode, we chat with Lauren Asprey about an innovative online resource developed by Newcastle University to ease the transition from sixth form to university.
Lauren, a project coordinator at the university's library education outreach department, shares insights into creating a study skills resource to support students in developing critical skills needed for university life. Discover how this project, born out of the pandemic, utilises student-led initiatives to address challenges like decision-making, independent learning, and adapting to new academic expectations.
Join us as we explore the importance of school libraries in preparing students for higher education and discuss practical ways educators and librarians can encourage students to engage with these valuable resources. Don't miss this enlightening conversation on fostering confident and skilled learners ready for the challenges of university.
